I honestly do not know, and Kip didn't either. He said that he would know more on the 28th, so I will call him that evening or the following day, and will let everyone know.

I am sure that most do not know of his involvement in cable when it was in it's infancy... He is far to modest to brag... A very knowledgeable and respectable gentleman, indeed. I hope that his condition can be resolved in the best possible fashion.

Grade 10 is worst. 78% 10 year survival at grade 6.

You will be in my prayers. Kip.

Kip,


I've been trying to think what to write for days now. Words fail me. Just know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers and that I am only waiting for you to return to the SG family, crankier than ever.

Your friend,

Hang in there buddy! My dad beat prostate cancer 3-4 years ago with successfull surgery to remove it. The nurse was doing a survey and found out that (including my dad) 8 out of 10 prostate cancer patients had a vasectomy before! One of the cops he used to work with just had a bout with prostate cancer at age 36! He beat it also with surgery. You'll beat it!
